Sad News: Wisconsin Badgers Suffer Major Setback as Star Player A.J. Storr Dismisses Himself Without Proper Resignation
In a surprising development, Wisconsin Badgers men’s basketball team has been dealt a significant blow as star player A.J. Storr has dismissed himself from the team without following the proper resignation protocol. This unexpected move has left the Badgers’ coaching staff, players, and fans in disbelief, as Storr was a key contributor to the team’s success this season.
Storr, a 6-foot-6 guard from Rockford, Illinois, transferred to Wisconsin from St. John’s University in April 2023. During his freshman season at St. John’s, he averaged 8.8 points and 1.9 rebounds per game, shooting 43.4% from the field, including 40.4% from three-point range. At Wisconsin, he made an immediate impact, leading the team with 16.8 points per game and a field goal percentage of 43.4% in the 2023 season.
Head coach Greg Gard expressed disappointment in the manner of Storr’s departure but assured fans that the team would rally together. “We respect every player’s decision, but this is an unfortunate situation,” said Coach Gard. “We will move forward as a team and continue to work hard for the rest of the season.”
While the details of Storr’s departure remain unclear, the Badgers are now tasked with filling the void left by their star player as they push forward with the remainder of their sc
